Loser pays

A simple reform to help the malpractice crisis:

Some argue that a “loser pays” system would keep poor people from suing. I say it should keep poor people from suing – if they have a frivolous claim. Those with legitimate claims shouldn’t have too much of a problem with their suits. And if the “loser pays” system is so bad, why do most other countries keep it around instead of switching over to an “Americanized” system of tort law?
